Official title
Lung Cancer Screening With Low-dose CT in China (CLUS Study) Version 3.0
Overview
CLUS version 1.0, had proven that LDCT led to a 74.1% increase in detecting early-stage lung cancer compare to usual care (NCT02898441). CLUS version 2.0 evaluated the efficacy of new techniques (AI, AFI and MTB) in fostering the implementation of lung cancer screening (NCT03975504). The present multi-center study is performed to evaluate the effectiveness of different lung cancer screening strategy and validate our previous findings. 100,000 high-risk subjects (age 45-75) were recruited to take LDCT screening (Baseline + 2 biennial repeated LDCT screening). Follow-up for lung cancer incidence, lung cancer mortality and overall mortality was performed. Blood samples were stored in a Biobank. Management of positive screening test was carried out by a pre-specified protocol.
Interventions
- Other Whole-process management software
Enrolled participants will managed by a pre-designed software. The software would provide helpful assistance, such as lung cancer education, decision-making, assisting in making and attending LCS LDCT appointments, arranging follow-up when needed, tobacco cessation support for smokers, treatment assistance if diagnosed as lung cancer. - Device LDCT detection
LDCT were performed in both arm. The abnormal nodules were defined as noncalcified nodules (NCN) larger than 5 mm
Primary outcome measures
- The mortality rate of lung cancer [Time frame: 5 years]
- The attendance rate of high-risk individuals [Time frame: 5 years]
- The adherence rate of high-risk individuals [Time frame: 5 years]
Secondary outcome measures (3)
- The mortality of all-cause [Time frame: 5 years]
- The detection rate of lung nodules [Time frame: 5 years]
- The incidence rate lung cancer [Time frame: 5 years]
